I can't believe it's almost time to start our Christmas countdown chain. I just make the traditional construction paper links and put a number on one side and an activity on the other. We start the Saturday after Thanksgiving (I'm too busy and tired to do it on Black Friday! ha ha!).Here's a list of ideas:Play w/Nativity (we have the fisher price one-love it!)bake cookies and go look at Christmas lightssing Christmas songs at the piano w/Dadeat dinner in front of the fireplacebackwards dinner nightplay doughtrip to McD'snew book-pine tree parablepaint an ornamentpaintbake cookies for neighbors and invite to cantata, etc.make a reindeer crafteat a candy caneeat a fruit snackdo a puzzle togethercall daddy at work and say "thank you for working so hard for our family"call a friendgo for a walkgo somewhere special (nature center, etc.)flannel graphmake Christmas craft (crown) read Luke 2 and open presents
